Start with a circle of radius equal to the height of a right cone that would be the extension of your frustum. Measure or calculate from the bottom of the frustum up the side and subtract that from the first radius. This remainder is a radius to form a smaller circle concentric with the first one. Now determine the length around the top and bottom of the frustum. This will correspond to a number of degrees within your circles. Draw this angle from the center to the edge of the outer circle. Now cut out the small circle and then the angle section. This should roll into the shape you want. If you use paper for this, be mindful of the grain of the paper. Poster board only rolls in one direction.

Which coffee grinder is the best for making a good cup of espresso?

The best coffee grinder to use for making delicious espresso would be a conical burr coffee grinder. Conventional blade grinders offer poor consistency in the chop and often expose the beans to heat during the grinding process. High quality conical burr grinders give a uniform fine chop and have a heat reduction motor to reduce heat exposure.
